The overall gain through the process block is automatically adjusted so that a full-scale input signal creates a full-scale output. When the input signal is below the specified Threshold, the output signal is just the input signal with the over-all gain applied, and no additional non-linearity.
MIOSoftClip(1) is useful for applying soft saturation in signal processing loops (for example, inside a feedback delay line). It is also useful for saturating the output of othe processors like the MIO Compressor and MIO Limiter.
